Fact 1 : Most stuffed toys are stuffed with beans.
Fact 2 : There are stuffed bears and stuffed tigers.
Fact 3 : Some chairs are stuffed with beans.
If the first three statements are facts, which of the following statement/(s) must also be a fact ?
I. Only children's chairs are stuffed with beans.
II. All stuffed tigers are stuffed with beans.
III. Stuffed monkeys are not stuffed with beans.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Answer: D
None of the statements is a known fact, so the answer is None of the statements is a known fact.
Statement I says only children's chairs are stuffed with beans, but Fact 3 says only that some chairs are, not which. Statement II says all stuffed tigers have beans, but Fact 1 says only most stuffed toys do. Statement III says stuffed monkeys have no beans, but the facts say nothing about monkeys and most toys are bean-stuffed.
None is forced by the three facts, so every option that accepts one of them is wrong.
